If you research the 'Paul is Dead' conspiracy you will understand more about what it takes to become a big-time celeb, and what they give up. Read McCartney's autobiography, written by him through a ghostwriter w/ approval from his lawyers, you'll freak out. On Amazon, "The Memoirs of Billy Shears." Yes I am sane. Get the condensed version, "Billy's Back." Plunge down the rabbit hole.
@TAThatBoomerang TLDR apparently means different things. Whatever. It took me months of research to believe it, but the original Paul died in '66, that's why the rumors never ceased. He was replaced by talented Scottish session musician William Shepherd (aka Billy Shears, Sgt. Pepper album, the funeral album). There's overwhelming forensic, etc. evidence. He’s three inches (at least) taller than the original Paul (James Paul McCartney).
This guy Shepherd (Billy) took over the band. The show had to go on, lots of money and potential cultural influence at stake. British intelligence was involved. This is the reason for the band's style change and all the gloominess and morbidity and clue-dropping accompanying their post-Beatlemania period. It’s a very tragic story and caused much pain, esp. for John and George, they ended up disgusted with him.
The replacement (Shepherd) is commonly referred to as 'Faul' (false Paul). He's a bit of a narcissist and wants credit for his role before he dies, so he's releasing evidence, he is believed to be the producer of The Winged Beatle (youtube) and the author of his own memoirs, Memoirs of Billy Shears on Amazon (I bought the condensed version Billy's Back - read the reviews).
He was able to write the memoirs and not break N/D's if he agreed to call it fiction. If you're not a Beatle fan it's hard to research it, and to care, understandably so. But it's one of the most incredible stories I've ever seen. It is almost impossible to read the book and not believe it's really him (Sir Paul). There's a youtube clip of Denny Lane (Wings) basically admitting this - he and Shepherd go way back, they were together in a band in 1963. Youtube clip also of George with Lennon dissing ‘Beatle Bill’ after the break-up.
And on and on. I would be the last one to imbibe such a seemingly incredible and nonsensical thing, but I now must admit it is true. Read it and find out why "She came in through the bathroom window," and that's just the beginning. (How did I do as far as the TLDR thingy – worse?)
Far too long to be a true TL;DR, however I did read it all, and it is indeed a very fascinating theory. I will have to do more research into it. Could you link to any of the forensic, photographic evidenced that alleges to show the discrepancies?
“I didn't have time to write a short letter, so I wrote a long one instead.” (Not sure what your def. of TLDR is but whatever, no problem.)
It's all over the internet, there's some radio interviews, just dodge the junk, but chiefly, go to Amazon and see 'Billy's Back,' read the intro and reviews, and watch The Winged Beatle @ https://vimeo.com/16353230. Sorry I don't have time to link the interviews, there's a good one with Sofia Smallstorm, just google it.
